National parks are America’s best idea, and there are more than 400 parks available to everyone, every day. The fee-free days provide a great opportunity to visit a new place or an old favorite, especially one of the national parks that normally charge an entrance fee. The others are free all the time.

The National Park Service has announced that the public will be invited to experience all national parks, without entrance fees, on four days in 2019.

The entrance fee-free days for 2019 will be:

• April 20: First day of National Park Week

• August 25: National Park Service Birthday

• September 28: National Public Lands Day

• November 11: Veterans Day

The entrance fee waiver for fee-free days does not cover amenity or user fees for activities such as camping, boat launches, transportation, or special tours.

The annual $80 America the Beautiful National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands Pass allows unlimited entrance to more than 2,000 federal recreation areas, including all national parks that charge an entrance fee. There are also free or discounted passes available for senior citizens, current members of the military, families of fourth grade students, and disabled citizens.
